Why the FUCK aren't you training traps every day?

doing what exactly? working out for traps in general? or the exercise in OP's pic? I was asking about that specific exercise because I do it sometimes

Very highly recommend NEVER doing the exercise in OP's image.

That particular exercise.

I see, thanks for the tip and clarification. I do the exercise with really low weight but perhaps that doesn't matter if the angle of the elbows is kind of fucked up. I like shrugs as well

>What is frame

can sub the barbell with a heavy kettlebell and go for high reps etc.

>i'm a newbie and don't know anything about lifting

you mean the same guy that said, never do chest flies because they're so dangerous

How about you suck my dick etc.

You will never get pussy like me, Chad.

Shit exercise

Weight or volume?
Will all traps exercises hit all three regions?

traps are cope if your bideltoid width is shit tier

Physical therapists literally put you in the same position as this lift to check for an impingement. Nobody with any understanding of how the human body works suggests this lift.

a bunch of DYELS at my uni gym do this exercise

glad to know i'm not missing out on anything

Rack pulls goat

Traps are gay

you look slightly chubby but you still have a pronounced adonis belt. Is this from lots of ab work? because that's kind of what I'm going for.

I never do direct ab work. I do lots of deep front squats both KB and barbell though.

How fucking new are you? There's a few options here:
1. You are very new to training
2. You are very new to the internet
3. You are very dumb

Doing this exercise will fuck your rotator cuffs to hell.

Explain why Olympic lifters can do shittons of high pulls and have 0 shoulder problems

Maybe because it's a full body power movement, while in bodybuilding its slow controlled, isolated and under tension.

because they are not high pulling, they are using momentum to get under the bar, so they are not pulling shit this high

Along with lower back and knee injuries, impingements is literally the most common injury of oly lifters. They also have physiotherapists, trainers and roid so they can get away with it to a much larger degree compared to you.

Because it is a different movement brainlet.

Upright rows are shit. You’re better off doing bent over rows or kroc rows. Also doing a lot of ohp will help your shoulders and traps. But, it’s retarded to train it every day. If you can do that, it means you’re a dyel doing 3x5.

shoulder impingement dude

any exercise that makes you rotate internally your shoulders

I stopped doing these years ago

that exercise mainly focuses upper traps so you still need rowing to stimulate the rest

>Doing Shoulder Shearers

Is there some magic to bb shrugs? I don't find them comfortable, my shoulder ROM sucks with a barbell versus holding plates or dbs. My dick and balls get in the way with the bb too.

Any tips so I can go heavier than two 45lb plate shrugs?

>inb4 quit being a bitch

big traps are gross and make you look narrow

it's all about the cannoball delts

You must do a lot of shoulder dislocates to have a good mobility otherwise you get impingement because you put yourself in the wrong positions to compensate

My shoulder cracks and pops and grinds when I do basic movements without any weights lmao

I mean the only thing I can think of is that it makes you look narrower if you have shitty shoulders to begin with.

Is he trying to fuck up that barbell? Why not just do it off blocks?

okay someone explain this to me
I did these the other day and felt nothing in my shoulders, no pain, just got a great pump
these are bad?

well you won't shoulder impingement if you do them once , they just have a very high risk factor of you fucking up your shoulders.

What are some good replacement trap exercises? Pls help user

shrugs obviously. Grab the bar a bit wider than your shoulders tho, better activation. Also don't go with light weights , traps are a strong muscle

you also train your upper traps isometrically during deadlifts etc.

>never do chest flies
not on a bench, no
do it on the flat ground if you want to do flies, it'll allow you to go heavy without sacrificing your shoulder health

Good pic. This is how progression pics should be done, same posture, colors, lighting.

well he's not actually wrong a lot of people fucked up their shoulders with fly's. Also cable fly's are better since you get better tension overall

But on the other hand I workout in my home gym and I'm doing fly's for years and had no problem yet. 70lbs fly's btw

That man is not pulling on the bar in that picture. He might as well not be touching it. The pull happens significantly lower, and he is currently dropping under the bar.

Because I'm not a manlet who needs to compensate and cope.
